Cutting right to the chase here: Star Trek the game is a bag of crap. Plus, it's the campaign and nothing more. A campaign that can be knocked out in a few hours. Just when the Wolverine game makes a good name for licensed titles (and even then it's still average), Star Trek sets them back.

Psst. May 21. Next Xbox announcement. Microsoft expected to reveal next Xbox in May

Console game development is a hot mess. Look at Tomb Raider. 3.4 million copies at $60 a pop. That's more than $200 million on just straight up sales. Square Enix considers that weak. What are the budgets to make and market this game? David Jaffe made an interesting comment on Twitter...

I would not be surprised if it's more the latter. Gotta think a developer/studio approached by Disney to create a Star Wars video game would leap very quickly. That's why I hold out an ounce of hope that we might still see 1313. Again, not holding my breath though. But it would be crazy not to...

Lucasfilm told me those projects have been "halted," which I read differently from cancelled. Wouldn't be surprised if they're not trying to get another studio to work on 1313, especially considering the buzz seemed very positive. Now, will I hold my breath for a 1313 launch? Nope.

I watched the final scenes twice because I thought I was hallucinating. It's completely crazy. It also leaves me wondering how they handle DLC. Could be interesting.

Yup. All done. Completed on PS3, but may do it again on 360 and kick off 1999 Mode. Played a little of that on PS3, and it was brutal.

So, yeah, Battlefield 4 looks kinda amazing. Video: Here's your first look at 'Battlefield 4' My HUGE concern here is the single player portion. I know that's not what Battlefield is known for, but if other games can pull off top-notch experiences across single and MP, then Battlefield can...

Good call. You definitely don't want to.

That happened to me a couple times, too. Wanted to aim down the sights to surprise an enemy and ended up torching them with Devil's Kiss. Either way, got the job done.

There are a couple songs like that in the game, but I won't say where.

Don't know. Confronted that scene three times, and I only want to throw at the dude with the top hat. Also, did you catch what the barbershop quartet was singing?

It's rare to find a video game where I really want people to hurry up and finish so I can see reactions.

Not really. There's 1999 Mode, which is way harder (food not as potent for replenishing health, tougher enemies, tighter resource management, stiffer penalties for dying). But you can't start over with all your Vigors and Gear intact.
